The other wonderful things are the dismissals of the wingnuts Allen West and Michele Bachmann, and the rape apologists Mourdock and Akin.

UPDATE: Bachmann is now ahead by ~1300 votes with 86% reporting. I’m not a praying man, but I’ll make an exception.

And the most wonderful thing are the winger tears. If you think Political Observer’s melt-down in the last thread is fun to watch, you need to take a look at Victoria Jackson’s twitter, @vicjackshow

And since most of her ~4300 followers are people who point at her and laugh, a fact she doesn’t seem to get, it’s like watching children poke at this poor rabid worn out gopher with sticks to see what she’ll do. Good times, good times.

And last but certainly not the least among my favorite things, is the fact that Andrew Breitbart is still dead.

The saner Republican pundits are making those points too. But the Tea Partiers in their midst think Romney was too moderate. They’ll want full-on crazy in 2016 and when they lose even bigger they’ll be in an even bigger uncontrollable rage than they are now.

Just got back from the Obama victory party in Cleveland, OH. I feel really happy that I came here. I met so many wonderful people. New Yorkers rock! In the midst of Sandy’s troubles more than 400 of us came to Ohio to help win the state for the good guys.

I-502 passed in Washington State. This is something – along with a black president – that I never imagined in my lifetime. I will probably break a 6-year personal prohibition in response, but it’s no substitute for drink…

@amk: Jesse Jackson.
That may be a joke. I, like much of the world have popped a celebratory cork with you Americans. Thank sweet zombie Jesus. I don’t think I felt this much relief when Obama won in ’08.

Back then we’d all come to terms with the fact that you were all seemingly in love with the Texas simian and apparently wouldn’t vote for anyone with fancy book-learnin’. This time it was Obama or the abyss and you guys delivered. Thank you.

Now that this is done & dusted, who should be the next supreme court nominee?

Michelle Obama, obviously. She probably wouldn’t take the job, but just the suggestion might cause Scalia, Alito, Thomas, and/or Roberts to stroke out. And then President Obama could nominate two (or three) more liberals!
